Re: Behavior at the competitions

The horrifying part is, he was making a speech about why FIRST started to give out the Dean's List award, and how we should honor and celebrate the amazing students that FIRST has as a part of our big 'family'.

As a member of the Boston Regional Planning Committee, I am utterly disgusted that one of our special guests at the regional was treated so poorly.

I applaud Dean for how well he handled being so rudely interrupted- I was given the honor of presenting the Imagery Award at Boston in honor of my grandfather, and I probably would have either burst out crying or said something very un-gracious if someone did that to me.

I don't care who it is- Dean, Woodie, the President of the United States, your best friend, or just some hobo off the street- you treat all human beings with respect. That was just plain rude and I'm so sorry that it had to happen at such a wonderful regional.
